When releasing new music today, half the battle is online promotion. However, contests, signed merch and giveaways aren’t always the best solutions. When working on their latest album, Hedley came up with a brilliant idea, they decided to make trailers.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.

Marina and The Diamonds are working on some new music, but Marina is being very secretive about it. Although the release has been delayed, she let’s us in on some secrets about the new album, and how alcohol changed her life.
Quite simply, 21 is a better movie than you’d expect.
We’ve all seen the set-up before: A university (MIT) student (Ben Campbell, played by Across the Universe’s Jim Sturgess) has big dreams (admission into Harvard Medical), but lacks the financial means ($300,000 tuition) to pay for them. So to preserve our society’s delusional democratic belief that we live in a meritocracy, he’s given a chance to earn the money – in this case by counting cards, which, as his math professor (Kevin Spacey) repeatedly tells him, is NOT illegal – ethically questionable, yes, but so are casinos.
The film begins with Ben being caught by a card-counting guard, Cole Williams (Laurence Fishburne), so you know where this is going.
Oh, and the girl of his dreams (Jill Taylor, played by Kate Bosworth) also happens to be on the team. His mom is single. He has a pair of best friends (Josh Gad and Sam Golzari) and a science project he quickly abandons. And of course this is all based on a true story. Of course!
It’s funny how easily Hollywood shoehorns real life into crassly manipulative patterns. For instance in real life Jeff Ma, the inspiration for Ben, was Asian, as was Mike Aponte (who inspired the requisite moody character, Fisher, played by Jacob Pitts), while the film’s two Asians (Aaron Yoo and Liza Lapira) are paper-thin caricatures who exist more as plot devices than anything (Ma himself has a cameo as a blackjack dealer).
Also, in real life Ma’s family was wealthy enough to pay for his tuition. So no pleading with an official to give him a scholarship, no scrimping to save $300,000 for medical school, no lying to his mother when she tried to give him a quarter of the money he needed, no genuine consequences (other than less money) if he lost.
Mickey Rosa, Spacey’s character, is a composite of two men: Johnny Chang and J.P. Massar, neither of whom threatened Ma with the academic equivalent of breaking his legs if he broke the rules.
And yet, 21 plays into its conventions well. The film is undeniably entertaining; the card counting sequences are well done and create an atmosphere of suspense, and while there’s one too many -
Ben: That’s it, I’m out of this!
Mickey: You can earn more money.
Ben: Fine, I’m back in!
(paraphrased obviously) – the characters are about as believable as they need to be. While I don’t respect 21′s decision to turn three real-life Asians into white people (there’s a Facebook group calling to boycott the film), there are worse movies to see at the multiplex.
Oscar winner KEVIN SPACEY has officially quit his acting career, to concentrate on his position as boss of a London theatre.
The star insists he is sick of the Hollywood system and has enjoyed more than enough acting success.
Spacey – artistic director of the Old Vic Theatre – says, “I don’t care about my personal acting career anymore. I’m done with it. After 10 years of making movies and going better than I ever could have imagined, I sort of had to ask myself: ‘What am I supposed to do with all of this success that I have had?”
“Am I just going to keep making movie after movie and be concerned with all of that ‘Are you up, are you down, are you hot, are you not?’, and I don’t really care.
“What I really care about is the remarkable experience of being able to be a part of bringing people together.”

Hollywood star KEVIN SPACEY has vowed to put his theatre career before any big screen roles – and will appear on stage in January.
The American Beauty actor, who is artistic director at London’s Old Vic theatre, disppointed fans last year when he pulled out of performance over a prior commitment to filming Superman Returns.
But he insists the switch isn’t something he plans to repeat when he stars as Booby Gould in a revival of David Mamet’s Speed-The-Plow.
He says, “I will never take time out from a production again.
“My single and total focus is on the Old Vic.”
